Gold maple leaf on pavement

Canadian Gold

July 1, 2013 by snapshotsandneedledrops

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANADA! I spent this Canada Day’s eve as a happy little ex-pat: baking maple cookies, wearing red flannel and unabashedly, albeit ironically, belting out Sloan lyrics– “One thing I know about the rest of my life… I KNOW THAT I’LL BE LIVING IT IN CANADA”.  And, while I imagined you all drinking beer on the dock and enjoying your day off, I was toiling away at my desk– not-so-secretly sporting a CANUCK tshirt under my blazer.

HAPPY CANADA DAY!!! Man, I love this country so much. This photo was taken about eight weeks ago on the top of Blackcomb Mountain in Whistler, B.C. May skiing! How outrageous is that?!

Anyway, people were in sundresses and shorts at the base while my friends […]
